 b-zenjapan - Introduction of Traditional Crafts : Fukuoka Prefecture - Agano Ware
Agano ware dates back to the 17th century, when Hosokawa Tadaoki, who became the feudal lord of the Kokura clan in 1602, invited a Korean potter to come to Japan and had members of his clan construct a noborigama--one of the famous "climbing kilns--in Agano.
Tadaoki was personally instructed in the art of the tea ceremony by Sen no Rikyu, the man responsible for establishing the Senke school which still exists today, and for a feudal lord, Tadaoki was deeply respected in tea ceremony circles.
There is much to enjoy about Agano ware such as the way in which the glazes run and its coloring, the qualities of the surfaces, the luster and any changes which occur during firing.

Although the ship appears to be simply an Agano type with a fourth turret, the hull was actually a completely new design, and although the upperworks too are basically as for the Agano, the funnel and air vents should be more like those of the Oyodo.
Here is the blurb from the book, translated roughly: The Agano class was a great improvement compared to the old 5500t light cruisers, but they were still too small and thus to accommodate a 4th turret a larger type was put into the 5th naval reinforment plan.
